Cantata 80a

Sunday Oculi, Third Sunday in Lent

Gospel: Ephesians v. 1-9 (Try then to imitate God)

Epistle: Luke xi. 14-28 (Jesus and Beelzebal)

The music for cantata BWV 80a is lost but can be reconstructed from its parody BWV 80 since BWV 80a/1 corresponds BWV 80/2, BWV 80a/2 corresponds to BWV 80/3, BWV 80a/3
corresponds to BWV 80/4, BWV 80a/4 corresponds to BWV 80/6, BWV 80a/5 corresponds BWV 80/7 and BWV 80a/6
comes from BWV 303. For more details, see the BWV. I am not aware of any recordings of this work in its reconstructed form.
